The Israel men's national under-20 basketball team is a national basketball team of Israel, administered by the Israel Basketball Association.[1][2] It represents the country in various FIBA youth tournaments. The team usually competes in the FIBA U20 EuroBasket, and used to compete in the now defunct FIBA Under-21 World Championship. This team was originally the Israeli Under-22 national team, until the FIBA Europe Under-22 Championship was changed into an Under-20 age tournament.
